A White Candle Birthday

 I made this all white slimline clean and simple Birthday card for four different challenges today!

It's a 8 1/4" x 3 1/4 inch slimline card.  The candles and sentiment are die cut out of Distress White Woodgrain Paper from Ranger which gives them some texture against the plain white card base while still being white!  

I also brushed Clear Glitter Wink of Stella over the die cuts so there is a little shimmer when the light hits the card - MAYBE you can see the glittery shine on the candles above?   It's hard to photograph.

I'm linking my card to the following challenges:

December Card Chain Challenge Reveal

 Today's the day for the reveal of cards sent out in December over at the Card Chain Challenge.

This month I sent my card to Dee in Kenya and I received a card from Marianne in Greece!

This time we were asked to use a Tic Tac Toe chart for our card designs and not just a regular one - a five column one!

I used the 2nd vertical column - Slim Line, Bird, Black, Deer and Stars!

Everything on my card was cut with dies -  Slim Line Circles from Rubbernecker, deer from Winter Wonderland from Sizzix, little birds from In the Meadow from Papertrey Ink, flying bird from Christmas Shadow Box from Sizzix and the 3 stars from Nativity die set from Sizzix.  

I really used my stash for this card!

I die cut the circle panel out of black card, then I cut squares of the snowflake paper and adhered them behind the openings.  I die cut all the images out of white card and adhered them inside the circles over the snowflake papers.

My card is 8 1/2" x 3 slimline.  I stamped inside "May Your Days be Merry and Bright" and wrote a New Year's message.

May Card Chain Challenge Reveal

 Today is the May Card Chain Challenge Reveal over at the Card Chain Challenge.   This month I sent a card to Gail in Norway and I received one from Jeanne in Minnesota.

We are given a sketch, colors and themes each month and can use just one or all.

This month I used the sketch (sort of!) and the theme: Friendship.

I made my card a slim line (8" x 3 1/4") using dies from Rubbernecker - Slimline Scallops with Holes and Slimline Inside Circles with Holes.

The little pots of geraniums were made with Sitting Pretty Accessories dies from The Greetery.

I layered blue striped DP behind the circles.  

The sentiment is from Saying Stuff - Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous.
